This patch may break stuff. I don't know if there are many people who

I am sure it will break something I don't think we can change

To supplement Brandon's Boolean wishlist, I would like to see some way to
specify a non-default precedence of Boolean operators. Most languages use
parentheses for this, and ideally that would be true for CMake as well.
Then a test of Boolean inequality of A and B would be
IF((A AND NOT B) OR
